TPM Article Topics

“What happens if President Obama steps aside and says ‘Mitt, I’m really in trouble and Joe Biden is sick, would you come in and be president?’ It’s not gonna happen,” Romney said.

Fucking line of succession, how does it work?

That’s really not fair: Romney’s a psycho too - just a more a sedate psycho.

I heard that Bob Dole is back in the hunt. That’s why the Trumpster is going to Kansas, to personally bludgeon him to stay out.

I’m going to support whoever our nominee is.

Lame. The whole NeverTrump thing is lame. The base voters are eager to divorce themselves from the establishment and take over the party, whereas the establishment, eager to keep the base votes, just cannot divorce themselves from them. Where the leverage resides is painfully clear. But those party elites like Mitten are in denial acting haphazardly… taking a pose of control and leadership here, wishing those base voters were more docile there. No leadership, no coordination.

Perhaps Mitten doesn’t know it yet, but he’s totally useless.

   whether he would step up to the plate if his fellow GOPers called on him to be their standard-bearer at the convention.

Oh…how sweet it would be to see him humiliated again so soon — Simply delicious ! ! —

Cavuto is basically asking Romney if he’d be the GOP’s designated loser.

“You see these pearly whites? Know how I got 'em? Baby bones! That’s right. When I have my breakfast babies, I gnaw the bones. It’s the bone grit, you see. Polishes the enamel. And absorption of calcium keeps 'em strong and healthy!”

So, everything that’s been happening in the primaries, this entire time… really has been good news for John McCain?! :hushed:

Nah, he’ll pick Romney this time, and then they can both get defeated a second time. :smirk:

No. It’s time for the real adult – Dick Cheney – to step in and save the party.

Do you mean Cavuto or Romney? Remember, it was Cavuto who as debate moderator asked this question in January:

“Investors have already lost $1.6 trillion in market value. That makes it the worst start to a new year ever. Many worry things will get even worse, banks and financial stocks are particularly vulnerable,” Cavuto said. If this escalates like it did when Obama first assumed the presidency, what actions would you take, if the same thing happens all over again just as in this example you are taking over the presidency?"

Anyone listening to this prick would never guess the stock market has recouped all and then some from the Bush crash, and that unemployment was at 4.9%.
